A confectioner by trade, Enoch James had been tinkering with a recipe for Salt Water Taffy for years on end, and in the 1880s, he relocated with his family to Atlantic City, eager to sell his signature confection.

Salt Water Taffy

There are certain treats that tie to memory so easily. The same way that you might associate funnel cake with a carnival or popcorn with the movies, many people have nostalgic feelings toward specific candies. Anyone who has snacked on salt water taffies near the ocean or stopped to purchase chocolate fudge in a boardwalk shop knows that there is nothing quite like having the good old-fashioned version of that candy – and that those recipes cannot be duplicated.

Enoch James and Joseph Fralinger are the most famous names in salt water taffy. Their recipes are the epitome of authenticity when it comes to these classic sweets. We proudly continue their traditions and carry all their creations, from "cut-to-fit-the-mouth" and "long-shape" to chocolate sealed and filled center taffy.

Only here can you find every variety you've been looking for to bring you back to the good times or to give as a gift.
